First, I am not a "leftie". I have christian family members, that does not make me a Christian. He is not muslim, calling him Hussein is plain ignorant.
'O holy Obama,
Please bless all the ignorant people who cannot find anything else to complain about other than your middle name, the fact that some kids sang a song about you, and other lame sh....crap. Amen.
Getting right down to it I don't understand the rational behind singing about whoever is President. Any school official would HAVE to realize that whoever it is, there are a significant number of families in the school who DIDN'T vote for them. Talk about poking a hornets nest with a stick.
Remember hussein obama's Kenyan upbringing and his cousin Odinga the mass murderer who he campained for in Africa. They bot have the same "take over the world" dream.
hussein obama is NOT a man that children should be taught to praise. He is a man with many alias and a very shady background who hangs with criminals, America haters, racists, bigots, and eugenists that would have prefered children to be aborted,
Well, people glorify Mandela too, but what the mythology fails to say, is that he was a terrorist, the leader of the ANC (African National Congress), a violent terrorist organization which was responsible thousands of deaths (mostly those of blacks) in South Africa. People believe the mythology because it's convenient and pretty. It starts out with indoctrination and people not thinking for themselves, by believing everything they read on cereal boxes and spewing television. Most people in this country have no clue. They've never lived anywhere else, never volunteered or worked with refugees anywhere else. Sad really.
A friend posted this on Facebook then followed up with the ubiquitous Hitler references.
**sheesh** I told her to get a grip. One small class in one school in NJ with a star-struck teacher and the country is on the slippery slope to Hitler style disctatorship and Fascism.... Oh please.
First part is fine. The first part -- the rap -- is fine but the song is political and inappropriate for a school setting.
How can anyone be upset about the POTUS asking all Americans to "lend a hand" at making the country better....unless s/he thinks things like a stronger country, equal pay, equality are bad things. I guess some people do. **shrug**
Had it been done during the Bush administration and I had a child of that age, I would have not objected to the first part -- the rap -- but I would have objected to the second part -- the song. I would have quietly mentioned it to the teacher or the principal. I would NOT have made any equation to Hitler and feared the demise of the Republic. That's just wingnut -- crazy and paranoid.
There's just one thing I don't get. Did some idiot in this NJ school record this thing because they thought it was a good thing to show off or was it recorded in horror?
I was wondering the same thing, more or less. Maybe a mom was just recording a kid's class performance and watched the whole thing unfold through the camera viewer.
As the Hitler youth grew its power and influence grew with it. It was a propaganda machine for inculcating Nazi ideology into the young; it dominated the schools and formed the Patrol Service (Streifendienst), which functioned as a kind of junior Sipo; and as the war progressed the youthful loyalty of its members was ruthlessly exploited. At twelve a boy was trained in the use of a rifle and machine gun and at fourteen he attended a military training camp for a month. From 1943, 15–17-year-olds manned anti-aircraft guns and youngsters performed many civil defence duties, such as fighting fires, patrolling the streets, and digging tank traps. They were an especial menace to shot-down Allied airmen. During the last months of the war the Hitler youth also became an important part of the Volkssturm (see Germany, 5); during the battle that led to the fall of Berlin, Axmann committed young teenagers to front-line combat in which few survived; and a number were enlisted into the abortive Werewolves guerrilla organization.
Then you should be able to understand why we want to nip this in the bud.
